Castle Game: BAD END=DEAD END

[idolpro]

[Suddenly, you hear the wailing of a horn. Outside, tension is turning to panic. You can't see anything, but you can hear people gathering up their things, sobbing in fear or speaking in harsh whispers. A lone voice calls from the distance:

The enemy approaches!

Upon the map, an unfamiliar geography appears -- several small nations, clustered together. Outside of them, an endless sea of enemy forces, identified only by a symbol of a cracked skull. Each of the small nations is marked with a flag in one unit's colour, and a tiny model of a castle.

You are at war. How will you protect your people and yourself?

[ still reading these rules, but ]

Yeah, that's about right.

[justfuckingtryit]

So, how're we doing this?

[neverbeentogeorgia]

99 seems pretty intent on stealing thee times every round. So I guess we have to figure out targets.

[rollwithdisadvantage]

I'm giving a proposal. You are free to counter with your own. And if you don't agree, do tell.

How we act in games in one of the reasons I really enjoy this unit.

[justfuckingtryit]

If we steal three the first round and don't get hit, we're going to look like a safe target in rounds two and three, since we'll have a cushion.

[neverbeentogeorgia]

Exactly. If we're playing this way, we're going to have commit.

[justfuckingtryit]

Is that what we want to do?

[neverbeentogeorgia]

[ He'd rather not see you stripping to avoid getting blood on your clothes. ]

It's what I want to do.

[justfuckingtryit]

If we're sending LiliS anything, we're not going to be able to steal three every round.

[neverbeentogeorgia]

It's not a criticism. If anything, I agree with you. Just stating the facts--you've proposed this, it's what you strongly want, so now we have to pick targets.

[rollwithdisadvantage]

I'm glad we are in agreement. I just wanted to make sure you knew. We didn't start off on the right foot, but here you are in this game. You're part of this unit, and your words have as much weight as anyone else's.
